There's this long story about stumbling across a guy picking on Vanilla Ice fans, who turns out to be a comedy musician (and eventually a hit on the Dr. Demento show) and later featured on VH1's Totally Obsessed (and turned down a Jimmy Kimmel invitation). Anyway, I think he's funny as hell...

I rarely venture outside the Video Game Deals section of the site, but I was on the forum and I felt like sharing. Gangstagrass is a combination of bluegrass and rap (specifically Rench and T.O.N.E-z) and the end result is a truly unique style of music. T.O.N.E-z (I know him from when he was...

The whole "Draw Mohammed" thing has kind of picked up lately. An axe wielding Islamist breaks into Kurt Westergaard's house, South Park does the whole Mohammed in a bear suit thing and Pakistan ha another round of web site bannings and a big Facebook page magically vanishes... It's 2006 all over...

I was involved with the underground music scene for a while. Nothing special, mostly acts people here have never heard of (McNastee, Jason Porter, Bloodshot, Worm Quartet, T.O.N.E-z and so on). I dropped out of the scene because while it can be fun, it's not easy going financially. Anyway, one...

A local store (Hudson's Treasure Hunt) had some Micro's for 30 bucks. I picked up a 4, one for myself and the others for presents. Three of them come with the black, blue and pink faceplates but the other one has silver, flame and camo. I decided to go on Ebay to see how they go (hey I got 4 of...

For the record, I'm not interested in how to play backups or how to get them on my HD or any of that stuff. I swapped my slim PS2 for a fat one in order to be able to set it up with a HD. The PS2 lasers have a habit of going out and I'm very interested in being able to store all my games on the...

I was going through a games box at a thrift store (never found any interesting games there before but I did find a N64 for $1.50 and a PSX for $2) and I had to do a double take. At the bottom of the rather small box was a black label FFVII. I opened it up and found out it was missing the first...

For the record this isn't the smaller PSOne, it's the big old one. It didn't have any cords but for 3 bucks I thought it was worth it. It works perfectly... Now I'm kind of wondering what to do with it. I don't really need it, I have a Psone (with screen) and a modded European PSOne (only plays...

I was out today and I came across a few deals that I was debating... 1: Persona: Revelations I found this at Gamestop. It was disc only, looked so scratched up that it probably won't play. I was going to pick this up until I realized I had forgotten my Edge card. Given the fact that it probably...

I list stuff on Ebay every now and then, that way I can pretend I'm not just wasting money but that I am in fact making money as well. I am not really a collector, but I still don't like to part with nicer stuff but if I can turn it into more gaming related stuff then well... I can sometimes...

I haven't been posting here much lately. Personal shit going on for the most part. Some of that has to do with my wife getting a letter from Homeland Security on March, 18. It informed my wife that her I-751 petition was denied because we did not make a January 23, 2006 interview date. The...

In a direct challenge to the international uproar over cartoons lampooning the Prophet Muhammad, the Jordanian journalist Jihad Momani wrote: "What brings more prejudice against Islam, these caricatures or pictures of a hostage-taker slashing the throat of his victim in front of the cameras, or...

In truth I am suprised it took this long, but over the past week sites that are taking the "free speech" side of the Mohammad cartoon issue have come under attack. For instance, both drawmohamme/ad sites have come under attack: http://www.drawmohammed.com/ is suffering from a "flood" attack...
